CitizenVectron Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Trump is going to cut-and-paste all the temporary rises and glue them on a poster board togther, showing it at a press conference or something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mclumber1 Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Giving the money to everyone, with no means testing, is the right thing to do. It's also appropriate to have those who make more and are employed to pay it back at tax time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massdriver Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 I don’t consider 10% up days to be healthy. It is the dying gasps of an angry bull still kicking around on the ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the dying gasps of an angry bull still kicking around on the ground. Don’t think the bottom’s in yet, either. I think what we’re witnessing is not just a panic over the virus, but the popping of a bubble in the bond market and a mass-deleveraging—albeit one so far smaller in scale than the one in 2008-2009–that will produce a true bear market. Stocks almost always overshoot their fair valuation downwards when a bubble pops, and we’re still not in super-cheap territory, although we’re definitely getting there. So I think we’ll see a bit more carnage before we get to sustained rally territory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Lawmakers struck a $2 trillion stimulus deal early Wednesday that includes sending checks directly to individuals amid the coronavirus crisis -- but it will likely take until at least May before the money goes out.
